Prediction: Panama 0-3 Canada
It’s party time for the visitors as they aim to keep the confidence going ahead of their WC campaign. They will look to seal top spot in style and we expect a comfortable win for them in this one.
The hosts lack confidence and may succumb to the increase Canada attack due to their poor defensive record.
